Reddit Community Profile — Reddit Subreddit Info Scraper: Rules, Wikis & Stickies

Provide a subreddit name and extract the full community profile — subscribers, description, rules, stickies, wiki pages, language, and 40+ metadata fields — in clean JSON / CSV / Excel. No login required.

TL;DR (40-word answer): Reddit Community Profile is a no-login Apify Actor that returns a comprehensive subreddit profile including rules, wikis, and stickies at $0.086 per community, covering 40+ metadata fields for competitive research and community analysis. Last verified 2026-05-02.

What it is NOT: Reddit Community Profile is not a post scraper, not a user analytics tool, and not a multi-community batch tool — it extracts the profile and metadata of a single specified subreddit.

Reddit Community Profile is an Apify Actor that accepts a subreddit name and returns a complete community profile via the Reddit API. Maintained by TrueFetch on the Apify Store.

💡 Use cases

For community researchers benchmarking subreddit health

• Problem: a researcher needs to compare subscriber counts, rule sets, and activity levels across 50 programming language subreddits.
• How Reddit Community Profile solves it: run once per subreddit to extract subscribers, accounts_active, rules, and type in bulk.
• Outcome: structured community benchmark dataset at $0.086 per community — 50 communities ≈ $4.30.

For brand analysts verifying community rules before advertising

⚠️ Common mistakes to avoid

1. Providing a post URL instead of a subreddit name. The input must be a subreddit name or URL like r/python.
2. Expecting private or banned subreddits to return data. The Actor only scrapes publicly accessible communities.
3. Confusing this with Reddit Community Post. This Actor returns the community profile; Reddit Community Post returns individual posts.

---

🛠️ Troubleshooting

Problem	Likely cause	Fix
Missing 'community' field	Input is missing the community key.	Add "community": "subreddit_name" to your input JSON.
Empty or null rules array	Subreddit has no posted rules.	Expected — not all subreddits define formal rules.
Empty dataset returned	Subreddit is private, banned, or quarantined.	Verify the subreddit is publicly accessible on Reddit.
Charge limit reached	Account-level monthly spend limit hit.	Raise the run / monthly limit in your Apify plan settings.
